You have your costs of manufacture - including both fixed and variable cost components (be careful to not inlcude expenses like marketing and admin in COGS). These costs are spread over 50K units produced, so you can figure your COGS per unit. If 10K units are still in the warehouse unsold, they are on the books as finished goods inventory. So what is the value of those 10K pieces?
